Nedster's World now featuring Ellis!

Last week of swimming on Tuesday and I finally gave into to pressure and wore a pair of goggles.  After much whimpering, hair pulling and tugged eyes they were actually pretty good!

I got into a 'discussion' waiting for Ned after school with another girl.  She marched up to me and told me I was only a little girl.  What a cheek, especially when she had to look up to tell me (I was much taller than her).

Dancing was really good again, I barely noticed Dad and Ned were there once we arrived and had changed my shoes and packed all my stuff in my princess bag by the time they came to pick me up.

I've also managed to lose my blankie.  Oh dear.  It's at nursery somewhere but after an exhaustive search it was no where to be found.  We searched the room, the garden and the laundry area and nothing.  I had to go home without it...in tears.

Dad and I had a sneaky trip to the BMX track again on Friday night after tea.  I got talking to a few of the local kids and took on the challenge of a race offered to me by an 11 year old...I nearly beat him too!
We didn't have much on the agenda for the weekend so it was haircuts Saturday morning.
We still LOVE haircuts!
Then it was a brief trip around town and home for lunch before heading off to Eva's party.  I love Eva, so this was a pretty big deal for me.
Mum took Ellis so Dad and I stayed home and did Lego.
We had a lovely time at the party, there were games of course, here we are mid way through pass the parcel:

Party food you say?  Yum yum, and no Jam in the cake either (I don't like jam):

Plenty of Hello Kitty stuff and time for a chat with the birthday girl herself:

After we'd been home for a bit, Dad suggested we go for an early evening drink at the pub with the cool playground.  I loved it.
And so did I to begin with but I think my partying caught up with me and I burned out pretty spectacularly.  I ended up getting sent back to sit in the car on my own while the others finished their drinks.  Oh dear.
We had a seriously lazy day on Sunday, I spent the morning with my Lego again (after i'd supervised the breakfast pancake making).
Once i'd made the yorkshire pudding batter I packed things in my handbags, looked after my soft toy 'kids' and helped Mum do some housework as well as going through a few of my dance class moves fo practice/showing of to Ned.
We were still in our pyjama's at lunch time!  Mum thought this was a triumph.
But we got dressed to go and top up our summer wardrobes and have a trip to the Discovery Centre on the way home.
We love the discovery centre, plenty of monkey bars!

In other news i've been reading my head off lately, and I think I might actually be starting to enjoy it.  My bedtime book has been the first Harry Potter story for a week or  so.  It was a bit slow to begin with but I love it now.

My choice of bedtime reading has finally moved on from the nursery rhyme book that Mum and Dad were well and truly sick of, in favour of my Disney Princess book.  It only has four stories in it, but they are quite long....ha ha ha.

Still no sign of my blankie, i'm having to make do with muzzies now instead.

Right well hopefully we won't be updating the blog next week as we should be on holiday.

Unless the volcanic ash cloud scuppers our plans and grounds all the aeroplanes....i've already had a cry about it today....fingers crossed.
